The global industrial enzymes market is expected to see a compound annual growth rate of six per cent until 2015, a new study suggests.
Sandler Research analysed the sector, which contains the detergents, technical, food, beverages and animal feed segments, and estimated it to be worth $3.3 billion (£2.06 billion).
However, the group expects this figure to reach $4.4 billion (£2.75 billion) in four years time.
